Ran Postar commented on HIVE-1643: ---------------------------------- I understand that pushing down the expression to hbase is complicated especially when working with multiple tables. But is it possible to add a hinting mechanism? We can added to each "from table" a hint for startRow and stopRow for the scan, and when HiveHBaseTableInputFormat scan the table it will added the startRow & stopRow. And for the first Part we will leave the user the possibility to optimize specific table scan. > support range scans and non-key columns in HBase filter pushdown > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HIVE-1643 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-1643 > Project: Hive > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: HBase Handler > Affects Versions: 0.9.0 > Reporter: John Sichi > Assignee: bharath v > Labels: patch > Attachments: HIVE-1643.patch, Hive-1643.2.patch, hbase_handler.patch > > > HIVE-1226 added support for WHERE rowkey=3. We would like to support WHERE > rowkey BETWEEN 10 and 20, as well as predicates on non-rowkeys (plus > conjunctions etc). Non-rowkey conditions can't be used to filter out entire > ranges, but they can be used to push the per-row filter processing as far > down as possible. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
